We are pleased to announce that GO Logic has been named to Architect magazine’s 2018 Architect 50 list. Each year, Architect, the journal of the American Institute of Architects, ranks the top 50 firms in the categories of Design, Sustainability, Business, and Overall. This year GO Logic made the cut in Design, debuting at number 43 among the top 50 firms in that category.
The Architect 50 methodology for ranking firms combines hard data with the judgment of professional peers to award a final score in each category. In Design, 72 percent of a firm’s score is based on its design portfolio, but the criteria also include the percentage of the firm’s designers who are licensed, how much pro bono work it does, how many design awards it has won, and how much it invests in research.
We are proud of the work our team did to earn this honor, and proud also to find ourselves in the company of so many firms whose work we’ve admired over the years.
In addition to placing in Design, we narrowly missed a listing in Sustainability, taking 53rd position (our rank on the Overall list was 93). Given the quality of the competition, we consider that result more than respectable, but we also take it as a challenge to improve our performance next year. Our practice is founded on the principle that sustainability and design excellence are inextricably linked, and we are dedicated to continuously raising the bar on both.
